I cut my hair, so, it was time for a new avatar.  This one comes courtesy of Len Peralta, though it’s not a proper portrait of myself but instead an avatar given out to RiffTrax fans from last night’s viewing of classic film Reefer Madness.  I’m a big fan of MST, Rifftrax by association, and…

Keeping up with my progress reports on my modeling project! So I continued to model on the base mesh, until I have something that looks like this: Notice it isn’t entirely done yet, as I still have the boots to work on.  They aren’t in my original sketches so I think I will just get…

This is a continuation of my D&D Project Post.  Here’s the sketches for armor designs that I made: I ended up going with the one in the bottom-right there. The ‘front view’ sketch for that floated to the top of the file. I’m not really one for making complex model sheets; I usually just do…

I was interested to know if I really got a “bad” Alpha Protocol ending, so I went looking for some spoilers on YouTube to see what other possibilities there were.  There are so many choice branches in the game, so there are a lot more variations on the last ending than I originally imagined there…

I edited the title on this blog a little to make it easier for readers and such. I was being long-winded before. I consider myself to be someone who doesn’t always play the latest hottest game and goes back to old games a lot, but then I went ahead and bought Alpha Protocol at launch…

I have a feeling a person or two might stumble in from Kotaku since my most recent post seems to be one of my most successful.  If so, hi! If you stumble in some other way, also hi! I’m using this space (’cause it’s my space, and why not ) to clarify two points about…
